  • Medical Feminism, Working Mothers, and the Limits of Home: Finding A
    ARTICLE Received 1 Mar 2016 | Accepted 3 Jun 2016 | Published 12 Jul 2016 DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2016.42 OPEN Medical feminism, working mothers, and the limits of home: finding a balance between self-care and other-care in cross-cultural debates about health and lifestyle, 1952–1956 Frederick Cooper1 ABSTRACT Post-war medical debates about the psychiatric consequences of married women’s economic behaviour witnessed far more divergence and collision between per- spectives than has often been acknowledged. Practitioners who approached women primarily as facilitators of family health—as wives and mothers—were mistrustful of the competing demands presented by paid employment. They were faced by a growing spectrum of opinion, however, which represented women as atrophying in the confines of domestic life, and which positioned work as a therapeutic act. Advocates of work tapped into anxieties about family instability by emphasizing the dangers posed by frustrated housewives, shifting clinical faith away from full-time motherhood, but nevertheless allowing responsibilities towards husbands and children to continue to frame argument about women’s behaviour. Doctors, researchers and social critics, in this context, became preoccupied with questions of balance, mapping a path which sought to harmonize public and private fulfilment, identity and responsibility. This article traces this discursive shift through a series of conferences held by the Medical Women’s International Association during the early-to-mid 1950s, connecting debates in Britain with systems of broader intellectual exchange. It enriches and complicates historical knowledge of post-war relationships between medicine and feminism, at the same time as offering a conceptual and linguistic context for modern discussion about work-life balance and gender.

  • A Content Analysis of Crimes Posted on Social Media Platforms Abstract I. Introduction
    82 — Elon Journal of Undergraduate Research in Communications, Vol. 9, No. 1 • Spring 2018 A Content Analysis of Crimes Posted on Social Media Platforms Alessandra Brainard Strategic Communications Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract With an increasing rate of violent crimes across the country as well as an uptick in crime in the news, perpetrators have turned to social media to gain attention, posting their crimes online. This study analyzed the motives of individuals who post their crimes on social media. By incorporating Sigmund Freud’s theories on guilt and utilizing a narrative criticism of testimony, the findings demonstrate a lack of remorse and guilt on the part of criminals who conduct unlawful acts, such as drunk driving, gang rape, and murder. The study concluded that the rationale behind committing the crime and posting evidence of the illegal activities on social media outlets stems from the drive of human beings to be recognized by others in their environment and social media communities. I. Introduction Historical Context With a skyrocketing presence of violent crimes across the country as well as an increase in crime in the news, perpetrators are turning to social media to gain attention by posting their crimes on social media platforms. The FBI’s Uniform Crime Report showed an increase in violent crime in 38 out of 50 states in 2016 (FBI, 2016). Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who has attempted to raise awareness around this issue, has declared, “The Department of Justice is committed to working with our state, local, and tribal partners across the country to deter violent crime, dismantle criminal organizations and gangs, stop the scourge of drug trafficking, and send a strong message to criminals that we will not surrender our communities to lawlessness and violence” (The United States Department of Justice, 2017).

  • How Social Media Is Changing the Way People Commit Crimes and Police Fight Them
    blogs.lse.ac.uk http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2016/01/28/how-social-media-is-changing-the-way-people-commit-crimes-and-police-fight-them/ How social media is changing the way people commit crimes and police fight them. Until the early years of the 21st century, crimes tended to be committed away from the eyes of the majority of society, with traditional media broadcasting information about them often on their own terms. Ray Surette writes that the advent of social media in the past decade has led to a new type of ‘performance’ crimes, where people create accounts of their law-breaking through text, images and video, which are then digitally distributed to the public on a large scale. He comments that social media has also opened up new ways of combating crime for the police, who can take advantage of the self-surveillance of those who publicize their crimes on social media. In 2013, a 16 year old boy in Ottawa, Canada was arrested for making bomb threats to schools across North America. While sadly this type of crime is now not particularly unusual, what is different is the way in which he was caught; his extensive bragging about his anonymous phone calls on Twitter eventually brought the police to his door. Until now, those who commit crimes have preferred to try and hide their actions and identities. However in the 21st century social media world, these surreptitious crimes now compete with performance crimes like these. The core elements of contemporary performance crimes are that they are created for distribution via social media and involve both willing and unwilling performers.

ISSN: 1070-8286 The Social Construction of Copycat Crime in Open Access Media Ray Surette University of Central Florida & Jacqueline B. Helfgott Seattle University & William Parkin Seattle University & Mary Ellen O’Toole George Mason University 104 Journal of Criminal Justice and Popular Culture The Social Construction of Copycat Crime July, 2021, Vol. 21 (Issue 1): pp. 104 – 127 Surette, Helfgott, Parkin, & O’Toole Abstract Examination of copycat crimes presented in digital mass media has important implications for understanding the nature of the contagion effect and its impact on potential copycat perpetrators in addition to understanding the impact of media-mediated crime on the public at large. While the crime content found in traditional legacy media has been extensively studied, open-access digital media crime content has not been well examined. Irrespective of a growing interest in copycat crime, there has been limited empirical research on the phenomena and none on open access portrayals of it. Addressing this research gap, the results from a one-day dedicated exploration of open-access data concerning copycat crime was conducted at Seattle University in 2018. Twenty students in twelve teams of 1 to 3 students collected open access data on copycat crime. The compiled open access copycat crime portrait was examined regarding crime types, perpetrator and victim characteristics, sources of copycat crime generators, and factors forwarded as causes of copycat crime.

  • 'Youth Crime out of Control' : Is It Reality of Media Hype?
    "Youth Crime out of Control": Is it reality or media hype? A Tasmanian perspective on the print media's portrayal of Youth Crime and Ashley Youth Detention Centre. By Peter John Barr Bachelor of Applied Science (Psychology) A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the degree of Masters of Criminology and Corrections School of Sociology and Social Work University of Tasmania November 2011 STATEMENT OF AUTHORITY OF ACCESS This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Peter Barr DECLARATION OF ORIGINALITY This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the text of the thesis. Peter Barr I Abstract As an employee at Ashley Youth Detention Centre (AYDC) I have been a keen follower of the Tasmanian media's portrayal of crime generally and youthful offending and AYDC specifically, for 17 years. During that time I have literally read hundreds of Tasmanian media stories relating to youth crime or AYDC and from that had developed the anecdotal view that the Tasmanian print media's reporting of crime, youth crime and AYDC is generally biased. In order to test that hypothesis I reviewed every Tasmanian newsprint article written on youth crime and AYDC during the period July 2007 to June 2009. In all there were 267 articles from the three Tasmanian newspapers.

    CRIMINOLOGY AND CRIMINALISTICS Inspiring Copycat Violent Crime — a Question of Social Responsibility Emil W. Pływaczewski Faculty of Law, University of Bialystok, Poland Wojciech Cebulak Department of Criminal Justice, Minot State University Minot, North Dakota, USA Abstract. The phenomenon of copycat crime, especially copycat murder, is nothing new. One would think that, because it has been around for so long, somehow the problem would have been addressed. Unfortunately, that is not the case, as we continue to see important details of horrible and violent crimes being reported by mass media without reflection on, or consideration of, how this type of information could be used by some in planning their own crimes, imitating the crime reported. This article discusses both the media and the law enforcement aspect of the copycat problem and concludes with the authors’ own recommendations. It is essential that both mass media and police make important changes in their approach to releasing information about crime to the public. It is naïve to believe that only law-abiding people are consumers of mass media, or that important details about the commission of violent crimes that are reported by media are never going to be used by anybody for an illegal purpose. DOI: 10.5604/01.3001.0012.1708 http://dx.doi.org/10.5604/01.3001.0012.1708 Keywords: copycat murder, copycat crime, mass media, copying other people’s conduct We would like to extend many very special thanks to Professor Jacek Dworzecki of Police Academy, Szczytno, Poland, whose excellent analysis very significantly enriched this article.

  • 1 Psychiatric Knowledge on the Soviet Periphery: Mental Health And
    Psychiatric knowledge on the Soviet periphery: mental health and disorder in East Germany and Czechoslovakia, 1948-1975 Sarah Victoria Marks UCL PhD History of Medicine 1 Plagiarism Statement I, Sarah Victoria Marks confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis traces the development of concepts and aetiologies of mental disorder in East Germany and Czechoslovakia under Communism, drawing on material from psychiatry and its allied disciplines, as well as discourses on mental health in the popular press and Party literature. I explore the transnational exchanges that shaped these concepts during the Cold War, including those with the USSR, China and other countries in the Soviet sphere of influence, as well as engagement with science from the 'West'. It challenges assumptions about the 'pavlovization' and top-down control of psychiatry, demonstrating that researchers were far from isolated from international developments, and were able to draw on a broad range of theoretical models (albeit providing they employed certain political or linguistic man). In turn, the flow of knowledge also occurred from the periphery to the centre. Rather than casting the history of psychiatry as one of the scientific community in opposition to the Party, I explore the methods individuals used to further their professional and personal interests, and examples of psychiatrists who engaged ± whether explicitly or reluctantly ± in the project of building socialism as a consequence. I also address broader questions about the history of psychiatry after 1945, a period which is still overshadowed in the literature by 19th century asylum studies and histories of psychoanalysis.

What happens in a hypnotherapy session There are different types of hypnotherapy, and different ways of hypnotising someone. After this, the hypnotherapist may: lead you into a deeply relaxed state use your agreed methods to help you towards your goals — for example, suggesting that you don't want to carry out a certain habit gradually bring you out of the trance You're fully in control when under hypnosis and don't have to take on the therapist's suggestions if you don't want to. If necessary, you can bring yourself out of the hypnotic state. Hypnosis doesn't work if you don't want to be hypnotised. Important Don't use hypnotherapy if you have psychosis or certain types of personality disorder, as it could make your condition worse. Check with your GP first if you've got a personality disorder. Yes, sometimes. More specifically, hypnosis is a form of hypnotherapy, which is a form of psychotherapy. As a result, hypnosis is sometimes used during counseling to relax a patient or client. Note: Those, who have psychotic symptoms, such as delusions or hallucinations, should speak to a qualified hypnotherapist or psychologist to determine if this therapy is right for them. This method is commonly used to control or stop unwanted or unhealthy behaviors like smoking, gambling, nail-biting, and excessive eating. Studies have suggested that it may also be beneficial for those with chronic pain.
